        History

        Notre Dame College was the women’s residence section of St. Jerome’s University, a public Roman Catholic university federated with the University of Waterloo. The college was operated by the School Sisters of Notre Dame.[1]

        The original Notre Dame College Women’s Residence was built in 1962. The building was intended to house women on the University of Waterloo campus with private rooms for students and Sisters’ quarter. The residence accommodated 50 individuals and was constructed with funding provided by the School Sisters of Notre Dame.[2]

        An addition to the residence building was completed around 1970 or 1971. The new wing enabled the residence to house approximately 125 students. The addition cost approximately $500,000 to complete and the funding was provided by the School Sisters of Notre Dame.

        An extension to the residence building was completed in 1970, allowing the facility to accommodate approximately 125 students. The construction of the new wing was funded by the School Sisters of Notre Dame and cost approximately $500,000. The architects of the new addition were Horton and Hall of Kitchener. The contractor was Monteith-McGrath Ltd.[3]
